picture on my phone
is it the phone?..if not can it be fixed?

If the phone's screen was bad, then the screenshot wouldn't look as bad. That's because the screenshot app doesn't take a pic of what's on it screen. It's taken from the rendering coming out of the GPU.
So don't worry, there's nothing wrong with your screen. Its probably the ROM.... or maybe someone somehow screwed up your GPU .

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Seems to be a problem with the gallery app. I have/had the same problem. I wanted to have a specific picture as my wallpaper and the endquality looked horrible like in your screenshot. I read somewhere while googling, that the gallery app downscales the pictures in some way (correct me if im wrong).
If you want to make that picture as a wallpaper and want to keep the quality i can recommend the app "Crop Wallpaper". It lets you crop your pictures while keeping it's original quality and sets it as your wallpaper.

Try These Camera Tricks

The camera on the Honor 8 Pro is full of really great features. Here's the most useful ones that I use.
Steady On Flash
Use Steady On Flash to keep the flash on while you arrange your shot. The flash will stay lit until you take your photo. This will help you preview how your image will look before you take the picture.

}
Wide Aperture Mode
Wide aperture mode is my favorite on the Honor 8 Pro. Take images of objects within 2 meters of your phone. Then drop out the background afterwards to get this effect.
Adjust FPS in Slo-mo Mode
Slo-mo mode is set to 120fps by default. If you swipe from the left side of your screen, you can bump up the frame rate to 240fps.
Use your Voice to Snap a Photo
Go hands free while your phone is setup on the tripod. Don't worry about setting a timer, just say "cheese" or make a loud noise to trigger the capture.
If you have any good camera tricks to share, post them in the comments.

Good one bro

Is the camera really that bad?

I was willing to overlook the ois/eis due to overall specs but after seeing camera quality I dont think I'll be buying this. Video recording quality could have been better

to be honest my old phone mate 8 camera ıs better than nubia . and yes vıdeo ıs rıght.

Can someone upload camera comparison please

You can compare images of the Oneplus 5, Xiaomi Mi6, Samsung S8 and Nubia Z17 in this review: https://www.chinahandys.net/flagship-vergleich-oneplus-5-vs-galaxy-s8-vs-xiaomi-mi6-vs-nubia-z17/
You need to scroll down to the camera section or maybe use google translate to read the text. cheers

Anyone tried the modified google camera app?

Here you go, took a photo.
It's not that bad. I'm on the Mokee rom using the Nubia camera app (not the google one) in portrait mode. It's not OMG-DSLR quality, but it's not garbage. Here's a picture I took with the Nubia Z17 on Mokee. Sorry - don't own any other phones to post a comparison.

Problem with front camera GCAM

Does anoyone know why I'm getting photos like this in low light on front camera when i turn off hdr?
Photos are messy with colors, desaturated.
I try different versions but every time i get this color deformation.
When I turn on hdr I get good quality, but I don't want hdr.

Did you try turning on "improve in low light"?

Same **** with +hdr turn off hdr and works fine

Try another variant of gcam
Some of them have this issue and some don't
Try what works best for you

I tried more than 5 main versions of gcam, (arnova v6, v1.6, cstark,...) But all of them havee same problem.
In versions which have option to turn on improve low light I checked this, but problem was still here.

Try this
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/GCam_5.1.018_by_SerJo87_1.6RC2_test4d.apk

Go to fix camera api2 and disable Remove Green tint on front camera.

Most out of MI A2 stock camera app

Just wanted to share way I found to get most out of MI A2 camera without rooting and installing Gcam.
First of all use HDR with contrast at lowest, other 2 settings should be best kept at normal. This ensures you get every detail retained in the photo, for some reason Xiaomi did awful job with adding contrast to photos and crushes all blacks.
Then I played with snapseed way too much to create filter that I can apply to all photos as a default, filter that brings back contrast without sacrificing detail. Lowest contrast setting also reveals some indigo noise Xiaomi tryed to hide by crushing blacks and I found good compromise with that too.
Just go to qr looks in snapseed and scan image below, then you can find filter in styles menu and apply it.
So here it is, so happy with it.
